About this book
Mohs surgery is microscopically controlled surgery used to treat common types of skin cancer and allows for the removal of a skin cancer with a very narrow surgical margin and a high cure rate. However, for those involved with the Mohs procedure, it is critical to understand the optimal preparation and interpretation of frozen sections.
Complete with hundreds of high resolution figures, Atlas of Practical Mohs Histopathology is written by leading experts in the field and discusses everything from normal skin histology and rare tumors to pitfalls and incidental findings. Dermatologic surgeons, Mohs cutaneous surgeons, dermatopathologists and pathologists alike will find this book to be a comprehensive and indispensable reference.

The ideal audience for this book is beginning Mohs micrographic surgeons, pathologists … and dermatology residents assisting in a Mohs surgery clinic. … This is an excellent book to keep near the microscope for teaching sessions. It is ideal for students of Mohs surgery tissue specimen interpretation as it presents an elegantly illustrated, organized, and thoughtful approach to the topic.” (Jon C.
